to do was to codify the convention, the cabinet manual, as you know, has this in it as a convention, the foreign secretary, now when he prime minister, really established the convention, which is, if there is to be a sustained campaign, the deployment of troops on the ground... so, the small print is about the sustained campaign. hear me out, because what david cameron then as prime minister did what i think right, which was to say, if we�*re going to deploy our troops, there has to be a viable case, and that should be put before parliament and the information made available as far as it can be, there has to be a proper legal basis because we�*re deploying our troops, and there should be a vote. i think our viewers would like to know, if you win the election, will you still introduce that law? well, i want to codify that, it could be by a law, it could be by some other means, but i am absolutely clear that that is a principle i want to see entrenched. but you won�*t commit to passing it as a law? i�*m not ruling out law. but laura of course there
